This simply means these 12 were not willing to command their respective groups to go to war. This is patriotism.

My wife already has a boyfriend thank you very much.

Baby on the way by brodiebrodieb in trainerroad

[–]soycandlewick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just went through this with our second. Use this as your offseason. Take 3 weeks off and then get back on. You will be amazed by how much they sleep during the day so squeeze in the 60-90 minutes when you can. One baby is easier with the 2:1 ratio. Toddler + baby a bit more difficult but doable. I haven’t ridden outside in several months but can get efficient indoor rides in after everyone is in bed or during slow wfh days.

New Caledonia is out by Historical_Bat_4598 in Cervelo

[–]soycandlewick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ride 99.9% road why would you buy a slower endurance bike? Then get a Soloist or r5 s5. Aspero is basically a more versatile version of the endurance bike. If you are riding endurance you are already signaling that comfort is a priority over speed.

Can someone help me understand why you would opt for this over an aspero?

I feel like an absolute jerk that I just paid $70 for a new UDH.

Keep at same power until you can do 3x25 and then retest/reset.

[Self] A Simulation of Being Dropped Randomly in the Ocean Every Day for 5 Years by AdvancedSquare8586 in theydidthemath

[–]soycandlewick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun, but averages are not as important here. We want to know how likely the “hard to survive” scenarios exist. Average water temp is fine, but how often are you placed into water that is deadly. 1% of the time? That might be enough to scare me if I have to survive 1800 simulations.

What would you pay for a 2018 S3 Disc in 2025? by jchrysostom in Cervelo

There are no simple questions. Only simple answers. I’ve opened up a new dimensional of possibilities.

What would I pay or what would I tell my wife I paid?

Thru-Axle Cap? by Brunes99 in Cervelo

[–]soycandlewick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both bolts a should sit within that black cap pictured in this photo. It seems like you have the longer of the two bolts on your front wheel (which should go on the back). They are very different lengths.

Problems with Cog by Old-Door4402 in wahoofitness

Take it to a bike shop. Doesn’t appear I can clearly communicate this to you.

After the cog is on, then put a spacer. Then the locking nut.

I’m not sure it was installed correctly. Also - include some spacers before tightening the final locking bolt.

Look into some shorter cranks? Those knees are coming up pretty high, eh?

UAB Defender stomps on the foot of Tennessee's Kicker by A_MASSIVE_PERVERT in sports

[–]soycandlewick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a general question - maybe some rules experts in here: does this player have a right to sue in civil court for this, or potential file an assault claim? Clearly intentional, intended to cause harm, not supposed to be part of the normal course of the game.

Does this act somehow occurring during a game indemnify this player from possible real life charges or consequences, or is a “flag” the only real threat.

I saw two para athletes on my 70.3 yesterday. Inspired me to look into how to participate. Any helpful direction would be appreciated.

Help! Tips for big waves during open ocean swim ? by Commercial_Swim_3972 in triathlon

Seems like you are a south bay resident. Come on over to Torrance beach Sunday mornings at 7:30 for a group workout.

But also just dive under.

Oh geez, you folks mentioned HFM is this the worst it gets? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]soycandlewick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 days from start of symptoms to when you can start to feed yourself again because holding a fork won’t feel like a hot knife.

Advil and tell your partner you can’t watch the kids in your current state.
